Jerry Lawler Recalls A Compliment That Vince McMahon Once Gave Him

WWE color commentator Jerry “The King” Lawler, who is out promoting his new Memphis Heat documentary, talked about a compliment that WWE Chairman Vince McMahon gave him at one time in an interview with The Miami Herald.

“I’m honestly not trying to blow my own horn because I don’t; well, I just feel lucky more so than anything but Vince McMahon once told me in conversation, ‘I think you’re the most all-around talented guy I’ve ever met in this industry. You’ve done everything, and you’ve done everything well. You started out as a referee. You’ve wrestled. You’ve booked. You’ve owned a wrestling company. You’ve done payroll. You’ve done commentary. You still wrestle.'”
